Free AI Course Outline Generator
Type a topic. Get back a structured course outline — modules, lessons, and learning objectives — in 30 seconds.
Built for the cursor-blinking-at-empty-doc moment
Most courses die at the outline stage. You have a topic, you know roughly what you want to teach, you stare at the blinking cursor. Kompyl's outline generator takes a one-sentence topic and returns a structured outline — modules, lessons, learning objectives, suggested order — in 30 seconds. Use it as-is, edit it, or feed it into the full course generator to expand into slides + quiz + guide.
Outline first. Slides after.
- 1
Type your topic
A one-sentence topic is enough. “Onboarding a backend engineer” or “GDPR for marketing teams”.
- 2
Review the outline
4–8 modules. Each module has lessons and learning objectives. Edit anything before you commit to slide generation.
- 3
Expand into the full kit
One click turns the outline into PPTX slides, a quiz CSV, flashcards, and a facilitator guide. Still free for the first kit.
Common questions
- Is this really free?
- Yes. The outline preview costs nothing — no card, no sign-up. Expanding the outline into a full course kit (slides + quiz + flashcards + guides) is also free for the first deck. Larger documents and premium palettes require a paid plan.
- What does the outline look like?
- A structured list of 4–8 modules, each with 3–5 lesson titles and 1–2 learning objectives per lesson. The format is plain text — you can copy-paste into any LMS, Google Doc, or markdown editor. See the canonical /ai-course-outline-generator page for a fully worked sample.
- What is an AI course generator?
- An AI course generator is a tool that turns a document, brief, or topic into a structured online course — typically including slides, a quiz, and supporting study material — in a single workflow. The goal is to compress what used to be 8–20 hours of instructional design into a few minutes of upload + review.
- How is Kompyl different from Gamma or HeyGen?
- Gamma generates slides. HeyGen generates avatar video. Kompyl generates a complete course kit — slides plus a quiz, flashcards, a study guide, and a facilitator guide — all from one upload. You can edit every block, swap palettes, change languages, and re-render.
- Can I upload a PDF and get a course back?
- Yes — Kompyl accepts PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, MD, HTML, and CSV uploads. Scanned PDFs are OCR'd via vision AI automatically. The PDF is read, structured into modules, and rendered as a multi-slide deck with a matching quiz and facilitator guide.
- Is there a free version?
- Yes — anonymous visitors get a free preview and signed-in free accounts get a small monthly quota. Paid plans unlock larger course lengths, more downloads, and premium palettes.
